Disputes With Neighbours Advice

We don’t always see eye-to-eye with our neighbours, but in most cases simply talking peacefully to one another is the best way to solve a problem. However, if talking hasn’t worked or you can’t discuss the issue with your neighbour, find out how you can get help to resolve the issue.

 

Common types of neighbour disputes

Living in such close proximity to one another, it’s no surprise that disputes with neighbours can get heated quite quickly. The most common ones relate to:

 

  • Noise, such as loud music and barking dogs
  • Parking
  • Property boundaries
  • Overgrowing trees and hedges
  • Children playing in the street

  • It’s important to note that most of these cases are not matters for the police, although there are some circumstances when you should contact us. You can read more information on who to report matters to with the link below.
